The girl brought me back home. Then, I not only had a mother, but also a father. They always surrounded me and took care of me meticulously. I always stared at them blankly with no expression on my face.
This world amazes me and dazzles me.
I gradually became addicted to it.
Time goes by day by day.
I sat on the toilet myself and learned how to use the toilet.
I took a shower myself, slathered myself in foam, and then rinsed myself off.
I brushed my teeth myself, with my teeth bared and my mouth wide open.
I watch TV...
I play on my phone...
I forgot that I was an emperor.
I am happy here and don't want to leave.
Until one day, I completely melted into this world.
When I faced that woman, I shouted, "Mom..."
She cried with joy.

I always feel like someone is following me.
This makes me very uncomfortable.
At first, I was a little nervous.
Sometimes, when I was walking on the street, I would suddenly look back to see who was following me, but every time I found nothing.

Suddenly, an old Taoist in blue clothes and a wooden bun came out from behind a tree and stopped me.
The old Taoist had a gray face and white hair. He did not say anything. He just turned slightly and pointed the whisk in his hand at a signboard with red characters on a white background.
There are eight words on it: Men and dogs are not allowed to enter.
In the end, I was never able to stand in front of the Jiulong Well and commemorate my past. The old Taoist followed me like a shadow, polite yet stubborn.
I stepped out of the gate of this Taoist garden, and after walking about a hundred steps, I looked back and saw the old Taoist bowing, as if to see me off politely.
I never saw that old Taoist priest again. I never went to that Taoist garden again.
There is a grave in my heart, where the widow is buried.
